Question clunk in suspension

Just bought this 1996 Grand Caravan es 3.8L. It rides well without sway or pogo, but when I hit a frost heave or small chuck hole there is a fairly loud rattly clunk from under the vehicle. Do these vans have common wear points that would cause this (struts, sway bar bushings, shackles, etc.)? I don't have a book yet.

Sway bar link, Ball joints, Strut bearings, Strut shaft, Control Arm Bushings, engine mounts, are a few thing I can guess it could be.
